Harry Belafonte - "ACORN IN THE MEADOW" lyrics

Acorn in the meadow, Meadow filled with sun
Baby in the cradle, Cradle filled with love
Sun is shining warm on the meadow. Tree begun

Mama smiling warm on the cradle from above
Someday my baby be a giant man
Me all rest in the shade of it
Trees stretch clear up to the sky
Oh Lord I pray you help me
Help me make him good
I can see it me in the shade of the acorn tree
Rest in the roots when I die
Never make me sorry that he was born
And maybe my baby with an acorn of his own He and his woman sitting side of me
